Comcast Xfinity cable plans

Xfinity offers five cable plans and flexible channel packs that let you purchase a more basic plan and choose select channels to add instead of getting stuck with a large number of channels you never watch. Most plans also include the ability to stream programming in the Xfinity Stream app as well as watch live TV. Xfinity’s plans are:

Choice Limited
The most basic plan offered by Xfinity consists of 10 channels, including ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox. It also provides HD service and access to TV and movies in the Xfinity app.
Limited Basic
The Limited Basic package includes the same lineup as the Choice Limited plan and adds access to thousands of on-demand shows and movies.
Digital Starter
The Digital Starter plan is the first of the more robust plans offered by Xfinity. The plan features more than 100 channels, including popular channels like Bravo, HGTV, FX and TLC. It also includes access to more on-demand programming, the same in-app access offered at all levels of Xfinity cable service and the X1 voice-activated remote.
Digital Preferred
The Digital Preferred plan includes all features offered by the Digital Starter plan, but it jumps up to more than 200 channels. The additional channels include popular picks for sports fans, such as the NFL Network and the MLB Network.
Digital Premier
Digital Premier is the most extensive plan offered by Xfinity and provides more than 260 channels, including sports channels and premium movie channels like HBO. The plan offers the same features offered with lower-tier plans, including the voice-controlled remote and streaming app.

Xfinity bundling

You can bundle cable and internet with Xfinity to receive a price break on your services. As an example, the company's Standard plan includes 200 Mbps internet combined with its 125+ channel cable plan for $89.99 a month. Two comparable plans purchased separately would cost $100 a month.

Comcast coverage varies from state to state, and cable and internet services are not available in every state. You can see the full Xfinity coverage map or enter your ZIP code to verify service availability on the Xfinity website.

Comcast Xfinity internet FAQ

The Xfinity Stream app is another advantage if you’re looking for a robust lineup of on-demand programming. While the monthly cost can be high with some packages, the company does often offer good introductory rates, and the no-contract option makes Xfinity particularly appealing.

    Xfinity TV has been billing me for 14 months for a Disney+ package that I cannot activate on my set top box. I've spent 30+ hours on the phone with Xfinity support and Disney+ support, and they cannot figure out how to active my subscription. I requested a refund for the 14 months of Disney+ service that was billed and they point fingers. They claim, without any evidence, that they have been sending Disney+ the money and subscription information, while Disney+ says they have absolutely no record of my subscription from Xfinity and I should get my refund from Xfinity. I escalated the issue with Xfinity since they are the ones collecting the money, and their final answer is No. They are okay with extorting money out of their customers. Classic corporate fraud with no remedy to the customer. Unfortunately they have a monopoly where we live.

    Revised Executive Office Statement — Clear, Professional, and Assertive. I have had numerous issues with Xfinity’s services that have resulted in multiple credits on my account. My bill due on January 28, 2026, before the rate increase, was $498.00. The Executive Office applied a $250.00 credit and sent a technician to address the service issue. Xfinity later confirmed that the problem was not inside my home—it was located on another street at a node affecting multiple customers.

    Despite this confirmation, a $100.00 technician fee was added to my account, even though the Executive Office stated it would be credited. When I contacted Xfinity—after waiting ten minutes to reach a representative—the $100.00 was finally removed along with an additional $32.18 credit. I then made a payment of $118.68, which cleared the balance for that billing cycle. On February 13, I reduced my TV package from 185 channels to 125 channels, with one free box, for a new monthly rate of $170.00. However, Xfinity attempted to charge me $373.00, which still included the channels that had already been removed.

    On February 24, I contacted Xfinity again and spent over 45 minutes with a representative who attempted to spin the issue rather than resolve it. I was told the credit would appear on the following month’s bill, which is misleading because the reduced rate is already reflected in the next billing cycle. When I requested a supervisor due to my growing frustration, the representative repeatedly placed me on hold and then disconnected the call. I have noticed a pattern: when representatives cannot explain the billing discrepancies, the calls are conveniently disconnected.

    Xfinity repeatedly tries to make customers believe they are receiving a credit for reduced services, when in reality they are still being charged for services that have already been removed. The billing system is outdated and continues to apply charges that are not owed, resulting in customers paying for services they do not receive.

      Every interaction or attempted interaction is a nightmare. Just navigating to the point where you can speak with an agent is maddeningly difficult. And the hold time at that point is ridiculous -- more than 30 minutes last time. When I do talk to somebody, I am provided with incomplete, inaccurate and/or inconsistent information, and I have often been moved around from department to department where I once again experience all these issues. Terrible! I will never use Xfinity again.

      OMG all this crap is just commercials - the biggest rip off on the cable market! All it plays are commercials on every channel at the same time - it’s uncanny and the same old movies week after week - they should be investigated by Washington!

      Xfinity cable tv is terrible. The content is absolute junk on the basic cable. Yet, they mesmerize the incompetent association managers to sign massive high priced contracts so everyone pays higher association fees for absolute CRAP.

      Xfinity, Comcast or whatever they wanna call their selves is the worst high bill for nothing but commercials and adds. You see more commercials than the movie itself. Every channel I turn to a commercial is on. I watch my firestick more than cable.

      After more than 50 years as an Xfinity customer—and now a senior citizen—I am paying $147 per month for basic cable (about 10 channels), internet, and a landline. My previous bill was $133. All I asked was that it remain the same. Instead, I continue to receive unreliable service, inconsistent support, and billing increases that are poorly explained and difficult to justify. Loyalty appears to carry no value, transparency is lacking, and customer service is ineffective at resolving even straightforward requests. For a company that markets itself as a premium provider, Xfinity delivers a service that relies more on market dominance than customer respect.

      After being a customer for over 10 years, one of the Comcast remotes fell apart. The battery door needs to be taped in place and the clear plastic part that is pointed at the TV fell off and won’t stay in place. When I called for a new remote, the woman said I should take it to an Xfinity store to get a replacement. I told her I pay over $300 per month and asked for one to be sent in the mail. She said OK, but I would be charged postage. What a cheap company!!!
